    Always a favorite place for us. (We live down the street!). Last night we brought guests that just moved here. They were "wowed", as I knew they would be. Everything was perfect :-)

    Very disappointing. Service was sub par. My tuna was too salty and I could not eat it. Lamb chops were only ok. The only good thing was the shrimp gratin appetizer.
